I needed it done, so I did it myself.

So maybe you have a welder near you who will do a small job and not jerk
you around and waste your time.  I probably do to, but I don't know who
it is, and I am tired of looking.

---------------------------------
Like you I do everything I can myself. This job was the exception and he had 
sold or given me the metal for several projects.

I had my vehicles inspected at a high class Audi/Porsche repair shop and he 
didn't tighten the lug nuts. Usually I check them with the torque wrenches I 
carry, this time it was raining and then I forgot. I noticed when one had 
fallen off after 3 months, and replaced it from the rear-mounted spare tire.

Amazon's email keeps telling me an item has been delivered when it hasn't, 
and tracking says sorry, tomorrow. My cell service has a data-used display 
that's always a day or two behind, they "fixed" it by adding a second one 
because they couldn't fix the first. My complaints are minor because I have 
as little to do with people as possible.
